Today, Norse Atlantic Airways, the pioneering long-haul low-cost airline, is proudly celebrating the first anniversary of its inaugural flight between Oslo and New York, marking a remarkable year of connecting Europe to the US and making travel more accessible than ever before.
Since the first commercial flight 12 months ago, Norse Atlantic Airways has ramped up operations, now serving 12 destinations across Europe and the United States and employing over 1000 people across Norway, the UK, the US and Europe. In that time, the airline has flown more than 2630 flights, carrying nearly half a million passengers. Cargo operations have continued to grow throughout the year, with the airline transporting approximately 14,500 metric tonnes in total, including 4000 metric tonnes of fish between Europe and the US.
“We are thrilled to commemorate our first anniversary of connecting Oslo and New York. This milestone not only reflects the hard work and dedication of our entire team but also highlights the growing demand for affordable, high-quality transatlantic travel. We are grateful for the trust our passengers have placed in us and we are looking forward to a busy year ahead,” said Bjorn Tore Larsen, CEO and Founder of Norse Atlantic Airways.
